Abuses at Castle Garden.

JIG. Slavery of Des Moines, Ia, a
"colonizing SETTLER" was examined by
Mr.. Okey in the Castle Garden inves-
tigation last week. He said that his
"impOrtations" of immigrants was
chiefly confined to Scandinavians. He
had attempted within the last two
months to enter the Garden to look af-
ter the interests of his people. He
was refused admission. The witness
then gave his opinion of the railroad
pool and it's managers. He saw his
people, and especially defenseless wO-
men, at the mercy of the employees in
the baggage-roOm and at the railroad
agency in the Garden. AS soon as the
agents of his company were prohibit
ed entering Castle Garden he sat about
finding out what the existing reasons
were for the issuing of such orders.
The railroad pool was the indirect
cause of the order. In his testimony
the witness openly accused the COM
missioners of emigration of shielding
the man who had assaulted Injer john
son. "Castle Garden today" he said,
"was a delusiOn and snare-a delu
sion to the public, snare to the i'm
migrant" The immigrants are i'm
prisOned there, hustled around by pO-
licemen, insulted by foul mouthed
baggage smashers, Overcharged for
their food, and at last shipped on
train, after being bled all around and
swindled by the railroad pool.

A Vivid Word Picture from TOistofs

We left PraskOukine coming back
with Mikhailoff. He reached a less ex-
posed place and began to breathe
again, when he perceived, on turning
around, the sudden light of flash.
The sentinel shouted "Mor- tar !" And
one of the soldiers who followed add

luminous point of the bomb shell seem

speed, the projectile came nearer and

hailoff and Praskoukine obeyed. The
latter, with shut eyes, heard the shell
fall somewhere very near him. A sec
Ond, which appeared to him an hour,
passed, and the shell did not burst.
Praskoukine was frightened then he
asked himself what cause he had for
fear. Perhaps it had fallen further
away, and he wrongly imagined he
heard the fuse kissing near him. Open
ing his eyes, he was satisfied to see
MikhailOf stretched mOtiOnless at his
feet but at the same time he perceiv-
ed, yard off, the lighted fuse of the
shell spinning around like top. A
glacial terror, which stifled every
thought, every sentiment, took pos
session of his soul. He hid his face in
his hands. Another second passed,
during which, a whole world of hopes,
of thoughts, of sensations and of SOU
venirs, passed through his mind.

A MISSIONARY MALTREATED.
How MIR. DOane was Imprisoned and
Abused by a Spanish Governor.

How MIR. DOane was Imprisoned and
Abused by a Spanish Governor.
Fresh news by mail from the Caro-
line Islands, received in this city by
Rev. DR.. Smith, Secretary of the Amer
lean Board, throws peculiar light up
on the character and spirit of the
Spanish rule just established there.
Mr.. Doane, whose imprisonment by the
Spanish Governor has been previously
reported in cable dispatches, has been
missionary on POnape, the principal
island of the group, for thirty three
years, and has been prominent in rev.
olutiOnizing the religious character of
the people. The latest intelligence
received by DR.. Smith is, in substance,
as follows: "The Spanish Governor
came to POnape last March with fifty
soldiers, six priests and twenty-five
cOnvicts, and almost Immediately be-
gan to encroach upon the mission
premises and interfere with missionary
work. Mr.. Doane, after several inef
fectual interviews, sent to him a writ
ten protest, complaining of this action
and describing it as arbitrary. At this
the Governor took offence, arrested
Mr.. Doane and put him in close con-
war in the harbor. All this was with
in one month of the arrival of the
Spaniards. After three days the Gov
ernOr came to Mr.. Doane, and, without
even the form of a trial, sentenced him
to fifteen days imprisonment because
of this protest. At the end of the fif-
teen days the Governor informed Mr..
DOane that he was to remain in con-
,f1 Il, -
state the charges. For six weeks the
Governor paid no attention to the in
quiries of Mr.. DOane or of his Ameri-
can associates on the island as to the
cause of such treatment. Then sud-
denly he sent word to Mr.. DOane that
within three days he was to be depOrt
ed to Manila, 1000 miles away, to be
tried there but gave no opportunity
to look after his personal property OH
shore, to find witnesses, or to confer
with his associates"
In regard 10 this affair, DR.. Smith,
in an interview, said "That, it seems,
is Spanish justice to an American citi-
zen! Put these facts, with other things
that have happened since the Spanish
came to POnape, the closing of some
of the churches and of all but one of
the Is or 20 schools on the island, the
silencing of some of the native preach
ers, the stealing and abuse of the ma
tive girls, the free flow of intOxicants,
and we begin to see what the Spanish
occupation of the Caroline Islands
means for Christianity and civilization
there, and for the prerogatives of
American citizenship. The govern
ment of Washington has been commu-
nicated with by the secretary of the
American Board, who has placed the
intelligence received as above in the
possession of the secretary of state"
